Yes as we have been saying, it's some software bug regarding old accounts. Nothing on purpose or anything.
"The username violates our guidelines"
I tried commenting on an article for the first time today. When i went to sign up and agree to the terms a window said in red letters "The username violates our guidelines"...
my username is my first and last name so I don't understand why I'm seeing this. There is no option to dispute on screen https://account.microsoft.com/profile?ocid=msedgntp

2022-02-20T21:41:41+00:00 Nope. Microsoft and Facebook discriminate against all. I get it too. My gf got blocked by facebook for spamming because she said she liked a friend's recipe. YouTube just deletes your comments. Copy you YouTube comment to clipboard before posting. Wait a minute. Then edit to add a period. If you get =an error that means google deleted you comment. Paste again, and play with wording. After a few dozen tries you might get posted. For example, replace the word white with misspelling of caucasian. Stuff like that. They are all idiots.
People think it only conservatives because Dems too stupid to be grilling them on thier stuff being censured when they have them before congress...plus conservatives do lie more.

I'm getting my xbox screen name when posting these comments, but that's modern compared to msn and hotmail
